"Ke'er, the way you look right now is very much like..."
“It looks like what, Second Sister?”
"It sounds like you hate all men. Our Xinghe is so good. Don't look at Xinghe when you say that."
“That’s right. Based on my understanding of Xinghe, he’s not a scumbag,” Su Xuanyu added.
"Third sister! Why are you all defending him? You only know one side of the story!"
"Hey, Ke'er, it seems you and Xinghe are hiding something from us. Tell us about it?"
"Big sister, let's eat. I don't want to talk anymore."
Su Ke'er began to vent her anger on the mutton on the plate.
Su Ke'er got angry when she recalled her conversation with Liu Qingmeng.
What's so good about this scumbag? Even Mengmeng is speaking up for him.
"Alright, let's go." Liu Qingmeng put away her phone, picked up her milk tea, and said to Xia Shishi.
"Mengmeng, your face changes so fast! It's all better now? Tell me, what happened?"
"I was so scared just now. Sister Ke'er said that Wang Xinghe cheated on her. When I asked, I found out that they ran into Shen Lanruo when they went out to play."
"Shen Lanruo? That senior from the journalism department, the most beautiful girl in the department, the one who interviewed Wang, the top student?"
"Yes, they already had conflicts. Even if Wang Xinghe cheated on her, he wouldn't be with her."
"Mengmeng, you should just be a snack. Some girls are like that. Have you ever heard of the term 'love-hate relationship'?"
"No, I know Xinghe. We even got angry because of her back then, you know? I just misunderstood."
"Alright, I can't interfere with your affairs, but you'd better keep an eye on things. Too many women like Wang, the academic genius."
"Well, I'm not bad either. I've got plenty of guys chasing after me."
"Yes, yes, Mengmeng is great too. You two are such an enviable couple."
"Let's go home, it's getting late."
"Let's eat! Let's eat first, and then we'll go back."
"Okay, what do you want to eat? I'll call home, you don't need to wait for me."
"Mengmeng, you're such a good friend. Let's go eat fried chicken. We've been so bored at home, we haven't had it for so many days."
"Okay, let's go."
After Wang Xinghe and the others finished eating, Su Ke'er returned to the car and grabbed Wang Xinghe's ear.
"Sister, fourth sister, stop nagging. Tell me what happened. How did your chat with Mengmeng go?"
"This silly girl, tell me, why?! How did you find such a great girlfriend? Can't I just steal Mengmeng away from her?"
"Fourth sister, what are you trying to steal? What's mine is yours too, our Mengmeng."
"Hmph! This girl isn't mine. I was just trying to help her, but I didn't expect her to still be protecting you. It really makes me angry! Why do you think she's protecting you so much?!"
"Fourth sister, if you can't figure it out, don't think about it anymore. Because she knows Shen Lanruo. She has met every girl around me and knows very well their relationship with me. That's the sense of security I give her."
"Fine! You think you can feel safe? Men are just driven by their lower instincts. Watch out, or I'll catch you doing something wrong, or I'll be keeping a close eye on you!"
"Fourth sister, you're my fourth sister, why are you so biased towards Mengmeng?"
"What do you think? If Mengmeng marries into our family, she'll be all alone and helpless. Of course, I'll side with Mengmeng." Su Ke'er waved her little fist.
"Okay, Fourth Sister, sit down now, we're going back!"
The next day, the family started putting up Spring Festival couplets, cleaning the house, and decorating the villa to be full of festive spirit.
"Great, great! It's been so long since I've felt such a strong festive atmosphere!"
"Dad, it's all thanks to me! If I hadn't suggested going shopping for New Year's goods yesterday, how could we have decorated our house so festively?"
"Ke'er, go tidy up your room quickly, it's Chinese New Year, your room is too messy!"
"Dad, what's messy? My room is very tidy."
Su Xuanyu went over and grabbed Su Ke'er.
"Come on, I'll supervise you. Go tidy up your room. If you don't, you're not allowed to leave!"
"Look at my third sister, she wants to imprison me in the house! You'd better do something about it! Is there no justice in this world?!"
"Go ahead, Xuan Yu. Keep an eye on this girl. If she's not properly tidied up, don't let her leave her room."
"Yes, I know, Dad."
Su Ke'er was filled with regret. She shouldn't have taken credit. Now she had to obediently go and tidy up the room.
"Xinghe, come here for a second," Li Lian called out to Wang Xinghe.
"Mom, is something the matter?"
"You said yesterday that you were going back to Ningjiang. When are you going back?"
"Mom, I want to go back home in the third year of junior high."
"Going back on the third day of the Lunar New Year?"
"Yes, both times I called the dean, I felt like she was hiding something from me. I can't wait any longer, I want to go back and see her."
"Okay, so how are you planning to get back? By plane? Do you need me to come with you?"
"Mom, I'm going to drive back instead of flying."
"Drive? Ningjiang is a thousand kilometers away from here. It would take you more than ten hours to drive back. Are you sure you want to drive back?"
"Yes, I want to drive back; it'll be more convenient."
"Alright then, do you need me to find a driver?"
"No need, Mom, I can do it myself. I'll also bring some Kyoto specialties for the children."
"Okay, then you can drive that Range Rover in the garage. SUVs are more comfortable for long journeys."
"Okay, Mom."
Li Lian paused for a moment, then said, "If you have time, go visit your grandparents."
When it comes to his grandparents, Wang Xinghe has very little affection for them, and even hates them.
"Mom, I don't want to go."
"They are still your grandparents. No matter how they treat you, it would be better for you to go and see them. However, it's up to you to decide. I'm going to get back to work."
"Mom, did he really abandon us back then?"
Li Lian stopped in her tracks when she heard Wang Xinghe's words.
"yes."
"I understand, Mom."
The next day was New Year's Eve. Early that morning, Su Muqing had a large pile of fireworks bought, ready to be set off that evening.
Li Lian was also in charge of preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, and the family's housekeepers were all on holiday. Wang Xinghe said he would help out.
“Look at you all, not one of you can cook,” Su Zhengshan said to his four daughters.
"Dad, although I can't cook, I can eat! I'm a great eater!" Su Ke'er said with a grin.
"Eat, eat, eat! All you do all day is eat! Get to the kitchen and help out! Your Aunt Li is so old, what if she gets tired?"
"Yes, yes, Dad, you really know how to care for Aunt Li?"
Su Zhilan and Su Muqing went to the kitchen.
Su Xuanyu indicated that she was not interested and turned to go outside, with Su Ke'er naturally following her.
